Zeke and Dak have the same average

To give people an idea of how low Dak's YPA are,

Ryan Fitzpatrick has more than double Dak's YPA on significantly more attempts....

Give Dak better protection and time for the receivers to get open, you'll see his ypa average increase. As for Zeke running like the wind, well, from the 3 games I've seen, this Oline has struggled to consistently get a push at the line of scrimmage and constantly open holes for Zeke. If it weren't for several big gains from Zeke on such few carries, his ypc average would be half of what it currently is.

Staggering that Zeke is averaging so high considering the boxes are being stacked. I heard he can't run with stacked boxes.

You like to exagerate. People mentioned the stacking the boxes thing when you mentioned Zeek was averaging 4.something yards per carry last year. That does not equate to he can't run when people stack the box. What people were pointing out, though not directly since it is fairly obvious, is that a running back average goes down if the box is stacked. And besides that, you were overcomplaining about the 4.something ypc, especially if you average 4 ypc three times in a row, first down!

Maybe, just maybe, Zeke's 4.1 wasn't just a product of stacked boxes and was a product of him being lazy and out of shape? Stacked boxes was an excuse. A poor excuse to shield another player from any blame. Same with Romo...excuse, excuse, excuse. Now he is in better shape he is proving it was just a lazy *** excuse. Worse QB play, worse OL play and better results.

Zeke did a great job blowing a TD and fumbling away our comeback last week. He also is great at running the ball against a prevent defense. Running the ball for 40 yards and then fumbling was a thing of beauty. LOL

Yah, but its more like 1 yard, 1 yard, 3 yards, 0 yards, 20 yards. That right there is a 5.0 yard average but overall its completely ineffective. When the Oline was humming it was more of the 3 yard and up variety most of the time. Setting up 2nd and short or 3rd and short. Now when he gets stuffed or the Oline commits penalties its 3rd and long most of the time. Facts are stubborn things.

romo + zeke for one year would probably break some records around here.

Aw poor little guy, did Romo quit on you? LOL

Romo and Zeke with this Oline would do about as much as Romo did when he had bad Olines. 8-8 sound about right? But Romo had better actually with Murray one year. Murray ran for 1800 yards. That was the year that Romo was 1 and done in the playoffs. IN FACT................Zeke and Dak with a great Oline actually did better. 13-3 vs 12-4.

You mean the game where Murray fumbled on a run that was a sure TD and Dez was robbed of a clear catch? Looking back, that 13-3 season was a fluke. Dak is a backup qb and nothing more. We can only hope that the FO don’t break the bank for a jag
